When looking around on Sciencenews.org, I found this really interesting article about how progress is being made toward translating brain activity into proper sentences. It sounds like something from an episode of “Black Mirror,” According to the article, scientists have found a way to basically link brain activity into sentences and thoughts using a neural implant. The thinking is that such technology could be used by those who have had their ability to speak in a traditional sense impaired in some way, such as in the example of ALS, vocal tract injuries, or brain stem strokes, which are things which can physically impair ones ability to speak and communicate, even though their brain is still functioning properly. It’s amazing that science is thinking of these things, and really creating an intersection between technology, math and English, since in this case, you can’t have one without the other.
